So for fans that appreciate the US power metal sound, they are gonna really dig this one.

With the addition of guitarist, Dave the 3rd, we will be presenting the band's first dual lead shredding solos.

We, the band know that this is our finest work yet, and can't wait to share it with our friends and fans!"
